What Customers Are Saying
The product provides an easy-to-apply, quick-drying wax finish that enhances the natural wood grain with a soft, matte look. It works well on both stained and painted surfaces and has little to no odor. Users report that a small amount of the wax goes a long way, making it a good value. Some note the wax can be tricky to buff out initially and may leave a dull or hazy finish on certain wood types, but the majority are highly satisfied with the professional-looking results.

The luster was dull and left white in the grain. This was on oiled black walnut.
Great finish for wood
outstanding
This product did exactly what it was made to and im very happy. I purcased red oak and was trying match it my floors (ike the orher review below - thank you!). I followed the directions and was very pleased. It is important you understand that you need to be using wood that has a distinct grain to start.

Easy to apply, exactly the right texture and feel for our french doors. Didn’t change the color of the gel stain we had already applied. Will use again.
Good Purchase
Works well, easy to use, a little goes a long way
Worth it!
I decided i would give this this a try instead of the polyurathane i normally use. I am finishing a butherblock top desk for my home office, i stained it with my normal stain that i had for my kitchen cabinets and i let them dry for the 4 hours as my can suggested. I wanted a seal and a shine on top but i hate polying, its so messy, so upon my research i came across this at lowes. This Mimwax Soft Touch Wax has no smell so great!! You’ve gotta stir it first, i used a plastic knife then you apply...
